No Post Mark on Mailed in Ballot
 

We must maintain the integraty of our voting process.  No Mail in ballot should be counted if there is no post mark to show it was processed before 7:00pm on Election day.  To do otherwise opens up post election voting fraud to try and change a close election by submitting ballots beyond the legal limit.
